- | Message 1's will continue valid for the District until 10pm this evening although a lull has developed over much of the District currently. Rain showers and weak thunderstorms continue over Boulder County at this time but rainfall rates are relatively light. |
- | This lull is allowing for some late daytime heating that will likely generate another round of storms in 2-3hours. Although temperatures have cooled storms that develop will be efficient rain producers and even a moderate storm is still capable of producing rates of up to 0.5"/10mins or more. |
- | Showers and thunderstorms will continue to be relatively fast moving from SW to NE at around 25mph which will help to reduce point rainfall amounts from a single storm. Training of thunderstorm cells will have the greatest potential to produce extended periods of heavy rainfall. After 9 or 10pm the threat for thunderstorms will diminish with additional rain showers possible overnight. |
WORST CASE SCENARIO: Training of thunderstorm cells or a very large slower moving thunderstorm may produce up to 2.5" of rain in 45-60 minutes.
